Default What model Walbro?

I'm looking for the Walbro 255lph in tank fuel pump that everyone is using. What model and where can I find one for a 99-02? I'm thinking about just going with the Holley. Are they comparibly good?

The Holley pumps are Walbro, I used a Holley for the Hauler's install and it was stamed Walbro on the pump.

You can go with a walbro inline if you wanted. Much easier to install since you have a return style fuel system. The pump is like 100.

Well I would, but the fuel pump already has 96,000 miles on it... and it's been making some weird whining noises for the last few thousand miles... so i'm sure it's about time for one!

The only down side is there is no direct replacement for the intank. You can put the GSS340 in there, but you have to modify the bucket a little and will loose a little of the buckets usefulness of getting every drop out of the tank, but it does work. I have one in my truck and the only time I have an issue with it was one time when the gas gauge was on e and I tried to get on it. Ran lean for a sec and I let out of it. I just don't let it get below the last hash mark and its fine.

Same here. Works like a charm, and no modifications were needed to get it to fit.
